2000 children were surveyed and the report that followed said, "With 98% confidence, between 20% and 50% of all parents make their children eat breakfast." What does 98% confidence mean in this situation?

We can be 98% confident that the method used to get the intervals always gives the correct answer

98% of all parents will make their kids eat breakfast

When used repeatedly, the method used to find the interval produces intervals which include the true proportion about 98% of the time

The kids were 98% confident that they ate breakfast that day.

Mrs. Soto polled 1000 adults and estimated with 90% confidence that the proportion of adults who have dessert after dinner is .75. Ms. Libner thinks that 90% confidence isn't enough and wants to do a 95% confidence. How would a margin of error for 95% compare with a ME for 90% if the same sample size was used?

It would be smaller because a higher confidence means a smaller MOE

It would be larger because a higher confidence means a larger MOE

It would be the same because the sample size is the same

Won't be able to tell without knowing the true parameter
